Abstract
Metals have been investigated as biomaterials for a wide range of medical applications. At nanoscale, some metals, such as gold nanoparticles, exhibit plasmonics, which have motivated researchers’ focus on biosensor development. At the device level, some metals, such as titanium, exhibit good physical properties, which could allow them to act as biomedical implants for physical support. Despite these attractive features, the non-specific delivery of metallic nanoparticles and poor tissue–device compatibility have greatly limited their performance. This review aims to illustrate the interplay between polymers and metals, and to highlight the pivotal role of polymer–metal composite/nanocomposite healthcare materials in different biomedical applications. Here, we revisit the recent plasmonic engineered platforms for biomolecules detection in cell-free samples and highlight updated nanocomposite design for (1) intracellular RNA detection, (2) photothermal therapy, and (3) nanomedicine for neurodegenerative diseases, as selected significant live cell–interactive biomedical applications. At the device scale, the rational design of polymer–metallic medical devices is of importance for dental and cardiovascular implantation to overcome the poor physical load transfer between tissues and devices, as well as implant compatibility under a dynamic fluidic environment, respectively. Finally, we conclude the treatment of these innovative polymer–metal biomedical composite designs and provide a future perspective on the aforementioned research areas.

Abstract
Abstract
This research investigates the optical and biocompatible properties of alkali-treated cpTi immersed in aspirin and different molecular weights of polyethylene (PEG). Instrumental characterizations were performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy, and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy. Additionally, drug release, antithrombotic, and cell adhesion studies were conducted in in-vitro conditions. The SEM micrographs showed that heat treatment of NaOH modified cpTi substrates increased the average surface pore size by 217%. Raman spectra’s active modes confirmed the presence of titanate groups which intensified the semiconductive nature of alkali-treated cpTi substrates. Further, the semiconductive nature was confirmed through the shift of the energy bandgap from 2.69 to 2.9 eV. The continuous redshift of the absorbance edge with an increase in the molecular weight of PEG indicates improved optical property. Following the Rigter–Peppas dynamic model, the drug release kinetics showed a non-Fickian dispersion (n < 1) and super case II transport (n = 2.21) for PEG-coated cpTi substrates. The alkali-treated cpTi-aspirin-PEG surface exhibits suitable antithrombotic property and interstitial cell adhesion with PEG coating. The modified surface on cpTi demonstrated a promising technique to improve the optical, antithrombotic, and biocompatibility performances, which are the prime requirement for the blood-interacted cardiovascular devices such as stents.

Coronary Stent Healing in Cancer Patients-An Optical Coherence Tomography Perspective. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:665303. [PMID: 34164440 PMCID: PMC8215158 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.665303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2021] [Accepted: 04/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: This study assessed stent healing patterns and cardiovascular outcomes by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in cancer patients after drug-eluting stent (DES) placement. Background: Cancer treatment, owing to its cytotoxic and antiproliferative effects, could delay stent healing and increase stent thrombosis risk, especially when dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is discontinued early for oncological treatment. OCT can assess stent endothelialization and other healing parameters, which may provide clinical guidance in these challenging scenarios. Methods: This single-center retrospective study enrolled all cancer patients who underwent OCT for assessment of vascular healing patterns after prior DES placement from November 2009 to November 2018. Primary study endpoints were stent healing parameters, including stent coverage, apposition, degree of expansion, neointimal hyperplasia heterogeneity, in-stent restenosis, stent thrombosis, and overall survival (OS). Results: A total of 67 patients were included in this study. Mean time between DES placement and OCT evaluation was 154 ± 82 days. Stent healing matched published values for DES in non-cancer patients (P ≥ 0.063). At 1 year, the OS was 86% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 78–96%) with 0% incidence of acute coronary syndrome. Advanced cancers and active chemotherapies were associated with inferior OS (P = 0.024, hazard ratio [HR]: 3.50, 95% CI: 1.18–10.42 and P = 0.026, HR: 2.65, 95% CI: 1.13–6.22, respectively), while stent healing parameters were unassociated with OS. Forty-one patients (61%) had DAPT duration ≤6 months. Conclusions: Stent healing of contemporary DES appears similar in cancer and non-cancer patients. Cardiovascular risk of cancer patients after DES placement can be managed to facilitate timely cancer therapies, as the underlying malignancy and active chemotherapy ultimately determine survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Improving biocompatibility of metallic alloy biomaterials has been of great interest to prevent implant associated-diseases, such as stent thrombosis. Herein a simple and efficient procedure was designed to biofunctionalize a biomaterial surface by isolating a SUS316L stainless steel binding peptide. RESULTS After three rounds of phage panning procedure, 12 mer peptide (SBP-A; VQHNTKYSVVIR) was identified as SUS316L-binding peptide. The SBP-A peptide formed a stable bond to a SUS316L modified surface and was not toxic to HUVECs. The SBP-A was then used for anti-ICAM antibody modification on SUS316L to construct a vascular endothelial cell-selective surface. The constructed surface dominantly immobilized vascular endothelial cells to smooth muscle cells, demonstrating that the SBP-A enabled simple immobilization of biomolecules without disturbing their active biological function. CONCLUSIONS The SUS316L surface was successfully biofunctionalized using the novel isolated peptide SBP-A, showing its potential as an ideal interface molecule for stent modification. This is the first report of material binding peptide-based optimal surface functionalization to promote endothelialisation. This simple and efficient biofunctionalization procedure is expected to contribute to the development of biocompatible materials.

Abstract
Drug-eluting stents (DES) have revolutionised the treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. In recent years, there has been a focus on a new generation of DES, such as biodegradable polymer DES (BP-DES). This novel stent platform was developed with the hope of eliminating the risk of very late stent thrombosis associated with the current gold-standard durable polymer DES (DP-DES). Ultrathin Orsiro BP-DES (Biotronik, Bülach, Switzerland) are based on a cobalt-chromium stent platform that is coated with a bioresorbable polymer coating containing sirolimus. These devices have one of the thinnest struts available in the current market and have the theoretical benefit of reducing a chronic inflammatory response in the vessel wall. In 2019, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of Orsiro BP-DES in patients with CAD based on promising results in recent landmark trials, such as BIOFLOW V and BIOSTEMI. The aim of the present review article was to discuss the history of stent technology and the continued opportunities for improvements, focusing on the potential benefits of Orsiro BP-DES.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the 1-year outcomes of a durable polymer Zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES) versus a biodegradable polymer Biolimus-eluting stent (BES) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 2083 patients from 2 different registries, 1125 treated with BES in NOBORI registry and 858 received ZES in CONSTANT registry were included in this study. Clinical outcomes were compared with the use of propensity score matching (PSM). The primary endpoint was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) including cardiac death, myocardial infarction, clinically driven target lesion revascularization and stroke. Secondary end points were individual components of MACCEs as well as the incidence of stent thrombosis at 1-year follow-up. RESULTS After PSM, 699 matched pairs of patients (n=1398) showed no significant difference between BES and ZES in the risk of composite MACCEs at 1 year (2.6% vs. 1.7%; p=0.36). Cardiac death was not statistically different between groups (0.7% vs. 0.4%, p=0.73). Target lesion revascularization rate was also similar between BES and ZES (1.1% vs. 0.7%, p=0.579). Non-Q wave myocardial infarction, as well as target-vessel revascularization rate, was similar between the two groups (0.14% for BES and 0.72% for ZES). Both stent types were excellent with no cases of stent thrombosis and rate of Q wave myocardial infarction reported during the follow-up period. CONCLUSION In this cohort of patients treated with BES or ZES, the rate of MACCEs at 1 year was low and significantly not different between both groups.

Abstract
Percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stents (DES) is a well-established and widely-accepted treatment approach in patients with coronary artery disease. Although the underlying principle of DES remains constant for different stents available on the market, certain factors may offer variations with respect to deliverability (ease of placement), efficacy (preventing restenosis), and safety (thrombosis rates). These factors may include the type of drug (sirolimus, everolimus, biolimus, zotarolimus, novolimus, paclitaxel, docetaxel), type of stent platforms (stainless steel, platinum, cobalt-chromium, cobalt-nickel, platinum-chromium), type of polymers (permanent, biodegradable, polymer-free), thickness of stent struts (thick, thin, ultra-thin), type of coating (abluminal, conformal), and type of stent design (open-cell, closed-cell, combination of open-closed cell). In this context, we present a review on characteristic features of several of the most widely used coronary stents worldwide. Furthermore, the advancements of completely biodegradable stents are discussed. In addition, the future directions for the development of creating an ideal or perfect DES are debated.
